I've always considered myself (Kayla) an encourager. I love building people up, cheering them on, reminding them of their worth, and encouraging them through their circumstances. And that's exactly why I founded Live Oak Boutique.

A little about my family and the Live Oak Boutique brand.

I grew up on a small farm outside of Hereford, Texas. My childhood really was the absolute best. It was full of playing in the dirt, climbing trees, and spending time with my 3 brothers. It's where I learned to be creative, enjoy nature, work hard, and trust in God's plan. I wouldn't trade it for the world and it absolutely shaped me into the person I am today.

I’m married to the most wonderful man, Merrill. He is my little piece of Heaven on Earth and has shown me just how much love the Lord has for me. I adore him! We have a toy Yorkie, Millie, who is a total mess but she is just as cute as she can be.

In the fall of 2012, Merrill and I purchased a live oak tree and planted it in our front yard. It was planted during our first year of marriage, and was placed right outside the kitchen window so we could see it everyday. With tender care, it grew taller and stronger as the two of us grew closer. We lived in that home with that little tree for almost 3 years and even after moving we still refer to it as our little love tree. I wanted the name of this business to remind me of my marriage, and Live Oak Boutique was the perfect fit. It's my husband's love that allows me to chase after my dreams with open arms. He is my biggest fan, and he whole-heartedly believes in me and my God-given talents.

Did you know that live oak trees can live to be hundreds of years old? They are incredibly strong and durable and their root system runs both deep and wide. I just want to point out how incredible it is that God can take something as small as an acorn and turn it into a huge, MIGHTY oak tree! It takes time and it's a process, but that little acorn has the potential to grow into something strong and mighty, withstanding the test of time. That is my hope for you! That you would take even the smallest of seeds that God has planted in your heart, and allow Him to turn them into something MIGHTY. Root yourself in the love of Jesus and watch His plan for your life flourish and grow into a mighty force for His kingdom. I'm here for you and want to encourage you on your journey!
